Summary
A science fiction thriller by D. W. St. John, published by Baen in 1999 and set in Los Angeles in the year 2030. Auri is being persuaded by a man named Tate to take on a dangerous job, and the partner he wants her to work with is Karl Latte, a former police officer who has telepathic powers. Tate describes Karl as the best man who ever worked for him: unconventional, fiercely independent, a champion of the underdog who never gives up, and a man who sees himself as a knight born five centuries too late. Something mysterious made Karl leave Tate's service, and much of the tension of the story lies in the secrets between the characters and whether Auri can trust them. The novel combines near-future crime fiction with psychic powers.
